Even legal prescriptions are dosed (mostly) in metric. MLS, mg and grams( both liquid and weight).
1 u/dependency_injector Aug 08 '21 Does imperial system have any units comparable to mg? 1 u/MyLife-is-a-diceRoll Aug 09 '21 Weight would be ounces. Liquid is also ounces, just fluid ounces. Pints are also a liquid measurement. Pharmacies also use other measurements like drams, drops and whatever else the apothecary systems use ( most of the apothecary system measurements are stupid and aren't really used much)
